I'll never forget a long time ago I went there for lunch one time...and at the table next to mine sat this Caucasian women who was was visibly excited about eating there...she had a SLR camera and was taking pictures of her lunch set and she exclaimed to the wait staff how she lived in S.F. and used to live in the South Bay stating that when she lived in L.A. she used to eat at Shinsengumi 3 times a week! In fact she had just flown in from S.F. and she went straight to Shinsengumi.

There's dedication. :victory:
